sar-e-ashjar tahrir hawa achchhi nahin lagti
chhupi dil mein jo yaad-e-yar hogi
dil ka har ek dagh charaghan se kam nahin
paDh raha hun nisab ho jaise
kaThin haalat mein apne iradon ko jawan rakhna
wo mujh mein tha nihan main dekhta kya
jhuka sake na mujhe hadse mohabbat ke
tabdiliyon ki rah pe chalne to de mujhe
noch liye har shaKH se patte buTa buTa luT liya
har shaKHs yahan mujhko bimar sa lagta hai
kisi ki yaad mein likkha hai jo kuchh
ab kya kahen jo mausam-e-gulshan ka haal hai
kab ka guzar chuka hai wo mausam shabab ka
is shahr mein nishana-e-qatil hami to hain
pahle to shahar bhar mein andhera kiya gaya
